Mail Notification v6

by Mottie

Description

This mod opens a popup to notify you if you have a new mail message. It was written for users who wish to hide their top menu bar (state bar/log in bar). Or if you just want a bigger message telling you that you have mail. I've set it up to open either a growl window (timed popup) or a facebox (popup you have to close).

For more information on the custom variables, please see this post.
To style the growl window (pictured above), use the "Growl Window Styling" Mod or refer to this post.
To style the Facebox popup window, please refer to this post.

The default to naming topics "New Topic" if you forget to put a title on them - it was a little preferable the old way where it just barred you from posting if you hadn't entered a name. It happens a lot where I/members will forget to add a title to their post and it shows up in "Most Recent Posts" as "New Topic" regardless of whether you go back and rename it.

Having the same issue. Members either forget to name the topic, so we end up with several "New Topic" threads or they type in a subject but it gets entered after the "New Topic", se we end up with thread like "New Topic Raid Strategies".

Also, as pinstripesc points out, manually renaming them doesn't remove the "New Topic" from the recent posts list. Any chance of a fix?

As far as I can tell with no trackable ticket system, this has not been addressed or fixed in three months. This is still causing headaches in my forums and I'd appreciate an ETA as to when this will be addressed.
